Positive update :)

Just popping in to say I hope it's nothing, True! And that your little bean is snuggled in tight! Praying for you!

Just to update I have called the EPU and will have a scan in the morning. I put a towel on during the night when the bleeding was there and despite it being a proper bleed it seems to have stopped? I expected to wake up with a heavier bleed but it is down to old blood and pink mucous
I am completely confused.
I did have cramping all day yesterday so I literally did nothing all day but today no cramps or pain - maybe a little twinge here and there but nothing worrying.

What is happening?

Ok. This sounds exactly like what happened to me. This may very well be a subchorionic bleed. It is when the baby implants on or near a blood vessel in the uterus and as the placenta forms it causes bleeding to occur.

Around 5 weeks I noticed a lot of blood on my panty liner (I was surprised it didn't soak through). I called my office and they scheduled me for an US a week later. It never progressed and lightened to only being present when I wiped or a dime sized amount at most on my panty liner. I would continue to have a bit of blood occasionally and brown spotting, but I was told that was the scab falling off and causing it to ooze a bit until it healed. It was completely gone by my 13 week 5 day scan.

I hope and pray this is what has happened to you and your bean! I'm praying that it snuggled in super tight!!!

Huge hugs!!

Thank you so much everyone. I know it's terrible but I'm terrified to hope, I do hope but I'm preparing for the worst. I wish it was morning already the day is going so slow. I'm afraid to do anything in case I start it off again.

Oh gosh True. That must have been so scary. I hope it is something like what XX went through and tomorrow you see that baby is doing great!!! I'll be thinking of you today!

[mommymachine]

NO NO NO. True I am so sorry you are going through this. I really hope and pray that your little bean is ok! I am so sorry.

Oh True, I'm so sorry to read this. Even if it turns out to be nothing, it is such a horrible worry. Try to keep positive and take proper care of yourself, lots of rest. Praying for you and for good news at your scan xx

So sorry I had a SCH bleed at 8 weeks with my youngest. I actually have a thread in this section somewhere that was posted two years ago. Bleeding during pregnancy is always scary. I really hope that all turns out for the better for you!
